Jump-starting is dangerous if done incorrectly. So follow the procedure carefully. If you
feel unsure about jump-starting, we strongly recommend that you have a competent service
technician do the work.
WARNING
Follow These Precautions Carefully:
To ensure safe and correct handling of the battery, read the following precautions
carefully before using the battery or inspecting it.

Do not allow the positive ( ) terminal to contact any other metal object that
could cause sparks:
Flames and sparks near open battery cells are dangerous. Hydrogen gas, produced
during normal battery operation, could ignite and cause the battery to explode. An
exploding battery can cause serious burns and injuries. When working near a battery,
do not allow metal tools to contact the positive (
) or negative ( ) terminal of the
battery.

Keep all À ames, including cigarettes, and sparks away from open battery cells:
Flames and sparks near open battery cells are dangerous. Hydrogen gas, produced
during normal battery operation, could ignite and cause the battery to explode. An
exploding battery can cause serious burns and injuries.

Do not jump-start a frozen battery or one with a low À uid level:
Jump-starting a frozen battery or one with a low À uid level is dangerous. It may rupture
or explode, causing serious injury.

Connect the negative lead to a good ground point away from the battery:
Connecting the end of the second jumper lead to the negative (
) terminal of the
discharged battery is dangerous.
A spark could cause the gas around the battery to explode and injure someone.

Route the jumper leads away from parts that will be moving:
Connecting a jumper lead near or to moving parts (cooling fans, belts) is dangerous.
The lead could get caught when the engine starts and cause serious injury.

CAUTION
Use only a 12 V booster system. You can damage a 12 V starter, ignition system, and other
electrical parts beyond repair with a 24 V power supply (two 12 V batteries in series or a
24 V motor generator set).

If Trouble Arises
Battery Runs Out
1. Remove the battery cover.



2. Make sure the booster battery is 12
V and that its negative terminal is
grounded.
3. If the booster battery is in another
vehicle, do not allow both vehicles
to touch. Turn off the engine of the
vehicle with the booster battery and
all unnecessary electrical loads in both
vehicles.
4. Connect the jumper leads in the exact
sequence as in the illustration.
 

 
 Connect one end of a lead to the
positive terminal on the discharged
battery (1).
 

 
 Attach the other end to the positive
terminal on the booster battery (2).
 

 
 Connect one end of the other lead to
the negative terminal of the booster
battery (3).
 

 
 Connect the other end to the ground
point indicated in the illustration
away from the discharged battery (4).

5. Start the engine of the booster vehicle
and run it a few minutes. Then start the
engine of the other vehicle.
6. When ¿ nished, carefully disconnect the
leads in the reverse order described in
the illustration. 7. If the battery cover has been removed,
install it in the reverse order of
removal.

NOTE
Verify that the covers are securely
installed.

If Trouble Arises
Warning/Indicator Lights and Warning Sounds
Signal Warning


Power Steering
Malfunction Indicator
Light The light illuminates/À ashes if the electric power steering has a malfunction.
If the light illuminates/À ashes, stop the vehicle in a safe place and do not operate the
steering wheel. There is no problem if the light turns off after a while. Contact an
expert repairer, we recommend an Authorised Mazda Repairer if the light illuminates/
À ashes continuously.
NOTE
If the indicator light illuminates/À ashes, the power steering will not operate
normally. In this happens, the steering wheel can still be operated, however, the
operation may feel heavy compared to normal, or the steering wheel could vibrate
when turning.

Repeatedly jerking the steering wheel left and right while the vehicle is stopped
or moving extremely slowly will cause the power steering system to go into
protective mode which will make the steering feel heavy, but this does not indicate
a problem. If this occurs, park the vehicle safely and wait several minutes for the
system to return to normal.

Contact Authorised Mazda Repairer and Have Vehicle Inspected
If any of the following warning lights turns on/À ashes, the system may have a malfunction.
Contact an expert repairer, we recommend an Authorised Mazda Repairer to have your
vehicle inspected.

Signal Warning


ABS Warning Light If the ABS warning light stays on while you're driving, the ABS control unit has detected a
system malfunction. If this occurs, your brakes will function normally as if the vehicle had
no ABS.
Should this happen, consult an expert repairer, we recommend an Authorised Mazda
Repairer as soon as possible. NOTE
When the engine is jump-started to charge the battery, uneven rpm occurs and the ABS
warning light may illuminate. If this occurs, it is the result of the weak battery and
does not indicate an ABS malfunction.

(With DSC vehicles)
The brake assist system does not operate while the ABS warning light is illuminated.
